Since Darwin didn't reject God I think maybe your wrong.

The question should be can the literal Genesis account and Darwinism Co-exist? The answer is no. For Genesis to be taken literally then a good bit of science has to be thrown out. It is much easier to take Genesis as an allegorical account of the beginning and leave the science alone.

That is a big kick in the head for people who interpret the Bible literally but sooner or later they will have to get over it. For now they are going to come to this thread scream and yell but really most of them are already dying off. They just like to make a big stink.

It's only easier if you throw out key doctrines of Christianity.

Even the literalists initially supported Darwin (you will note that the order of creation, according to the Bible, is more or less the same order promulgated by Darwinists). It was Darwinists themselves who rejected Darwinists, not vice-versa. The early debates between these two camps are very telling...
